There are two trunks. But the trunks are configured on Gig interfaces. VTP
traffic restriction is required ONLY on fast Ethernet ports.

Thanks,

Noble

Lee,

I think your solution would work. However, on a lab scenario, I think its
unlikely there would be no trunk between the switches.

I'm not sure where this questions is from, but I think it *could* also mean
setting the switch to transparent mode, as this would stop the switch from
generating VTP packets.

VTP packets received from other switches wouldn't be processed but would be
forwarded however, so I'm not 100% sure this would achieve the required
results.

I would like to see this question in context to give a definitive answer
.i.e was there a requirement to configure trunk links etc.

Regards
Roy
